Hard to believe that over the span of about four and a half years I typed 1226 posts. At least that's what blogger tells me. Some people just don't know when to shut up, apparently.
I stopped paying for themurphylife.com domain name. It just didn't seem Murphycheap to keep paying for a portion of cyberspace that was akin to a world wide web trash bin. (or should I say, "rubbish" for our Kiwi readers out there.)
Maybe I'll parlay the domain expense into a book fund to turn my blog into a book.
The great loss is all these unpublished blogs that are sitting on a blogger server somewhere in California, no doubt. I once heard Steinbeck's, Catcher in the Rye, first draft was eaten by his dog. Perhaps I should consider the unpublished blogs worth of my dog's lunch, and just move on.
It's been a great ride.
I've grown.
I love my wife and kids more than ever.
I've grown closer to my brother, Paul.
I've made a ton of new friends from far and away... mostly from far.
Tofa Amerika Samoa.

Actually, I have a pretty cool proposition for what we can do with several of your stories from the Rock. I'll send you a Facebook message about it later.
Also, I've discovered that around 90% of my unpublished blog entries were nothing but early drafts of things that ended up getting published anyhow. And when I say "early," I mean like three sentences long. I wouldn't sweat them too much.
Wow. Too bad I didn't catch your blog and site years ago. We are Murphys from Savaii living in Texas at the moment. Just got back from Fagamalo in January. Ia, malo lava. Faaaoao le evaga Murph!
